The best way to support the Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary is to join our adoption at a distance program.
Adopting a cat at a distance is a symbolic gesture, but at the same time allows us to work closer with the cats so we can convey to you all of their affection. You’ll receive news, stories and photographs to share with your friends! READ MORE.
Here you can see a small gallery of our most popular stars! They are all just waiting to tell you their stories!
Here’s what happens to unsterilized home cats who are free to ramble. Castellano was hit by a car and now he’s broken! A tripod with spinal damage, he dislikes other cats but loves bags and people. Don’t tell him he has a disability, he scoots across the floor faster than the scooters of Rome!
Rescued as a kitten in the deserts of Jordan by a friend, Zarqa found herself in Rome. She is a sweet, healthy, and young cat with a great problem – anything new terrifies her and fear makes her urinate without control! Over time, she has found stability and happiness in the nursery…as long as her meals are served on time!
Suffering from cerebral ataxia, he tries to maintain his balance, while showing sweetness and independence. He’s not looking for sympathy and if he doesn’t like something, he will surely let you know!
Rubio appeared amongst the ruins in spring 2015. He was a young, beautiful, and healthy cat, with golden almond eyes and a mild character. We thought he would be adopted immediately. Destiny had other ideas and Rubio shed his mild character to happily rule the ruins and our hearts!
Genziana is a beauty with mesmerizing eyes and a sometimes wicked character! She could be a cat-model. They say she has the same temperament as Naomi Campbell … very hot-tempered!
He had a very difficult and abusive start to life. Now a middle-aged cat, struggling to stay healthy. Senility set in so he has retired to the nursery after years of chasing the female cats. His big love now is to be held in the arms of the volunteers who shower him with kisses. A gentle giant, like the Obelix of the comics, who loves humans very much.
He has been with us since 2010 and due to a herpes infection as a kitten, he lost sight in one eye. Narciso lives with a passion for freedom and calls the Area Sacra his kingdom. We see him at mealtimes where he’s always willing to tell us to hurry up and serve! He’s the right cat for people who really love liberty very much!
She is our welcome hostess and can always be found at the entrance to the shelter. Disturbia got her name as she used to be very disturbed due to a very sad background. Over the years she has become a funny, sassy and playful girl who loves practical jokes on the other cats. She can’t be missed with her beautiful golden eyes.
What a unique little face! This kitty must be very sweet! Many have fallen into the temptation that is Ivanka. Do you dare to find out the truth?
